Sunrise (Basil X Reader)
You were struggling.
Salt water was infiltrating your lungs.
Drowning – you had bad memories of it.
The image of Basil flashed into your mind for an instant and that was all you need to keep you going.
You palmed on the surface of the seawater and pushed it down, desperately trying to keep yourself afloat.
"B-Basil!" you managed to cough out relentlessly as you sunk further down.
Your energy drained away as you kept your eyes half-lidded for any signs of hope. You were finally submerged. Salt water was stinging your eyes, but you didn't care.

"[Y/N]!"
Basil's voice. You were sure of it.
"[Y/N]…"
It's fading away…"…"
It's gone.
You didn't see the sunrise.
